You spin me round card
I have written many times about the card parties I go to. However, I don’t know if I have ever talked about the fact that my mom is a part of that card party. I invited her one time because I wanted her to be able use some of her creativity. My mom is a really good artist but she is her own worst critic. (And people wonder why I am so hard on myself). I remember once when I was little probably Kindergarten or First Grade, I woke up to my mom sitting in my room in near dark sketching me. I don’t know whatever happened to that drawing or the sketch book in general but in my head I can still see it. Even the detail of the nightgown I was wearing.
The problem with my mom being so hard on herself is that rarely does she take the time to actually draw. I thought card parties would be great for her. She’d have a creative outlet and it is only a once a month commitment. She is still hard on herself and will sometimes see a card we are making and cringe but deep down she enjoys it. Here is the card I made from the card sample she designed at this past card party. 
This card works well at keeping with the themes I seem to have going on this week sweet and simple.
